Sir’Jabari Rice Announces His Transfer to Texas Basketball
Sir’Jabari Rice announced his transfer to Texas on Tuesday, giving the Longhorns one of the top guards in the Western Athletic Conference next season.
Rice is coming off a season in which he averaged 11.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game for the Aggies, who won the WAC Tournament title and a first-round NCAA Tournament game. Rice has been a first-team and second-team All-WAC selection in his career.
Rice’s announcement came via social media.
His announcement came on the same day that Texas guard Devin Askew announced his transfer from Texas, a year after transferring to Texas from Kentucky. The Longhorns also lost guard Courtney Ramey to the transfer portal last month.
